FAQs |
Why should I choose you as my financial advisor?I think each person/family should choose a financial advisor that they feel comfortable with and they believe can help them to pursue whatever goals they are trying to accomplish. |
How do you charge for your services?I'm a fee-based advisor, that charges a percentage based on assets under management. This is tiered or blended rate and starts at 1% under $1 million and drops 0.1% for each additional million. For example a $2,000,000 household would be 1% for the first million and 0.9% for the second million averaging out to 0.95% for the total. Above $5,000,000 the fee is a flat 0.5% and is not tiered as previously discussed. If there is a unique or particular need that a specific product is necessary, there may be commissions that our office receives. |
What services do you provide? What are your specialties?We provide comprehensive financial planning or targeted planning, depending upon need and urgency. I work with individuals and families between $500,000-$5,000,000 in investable assets that are approaching or in retirement. |
What is your experience? How many clients do you currently manage?I have been in the industry for 9 years and am also an owner within a family owned and operated tax and accounting office. I currently have approximately 75 Advisory Clients that are fee-based. Overall, our office manages a total that is approximately 250 households. |
What financial institution(s) do you represent?We are independent advisors registered with LPL Financial. |
